Basically it doesn't matter too much if you put the png image or just some text into the page overlay in doc-view. That would need some work, but it should be doable. Currently my time is quite limited, so I won't implement it in the nearer future. Maybe some other dev wants to volunteer. You might want to write an enhancement request using M-x report-emacs-bug, so that it won't be forgotten.
